# Enhancements

## Filters

### The box custom filters panel is available in the Overview module

Under the **Filters **button, you can find two filters:

- Date range filters
- Custom filters panel

The fields in Custom filters are derived from the current Column Views. 

**Exceptions**: attributes that have their own filters won’t be included in the ‘custom’ panel

- Favorites - filter is turned on/off using the ‘star’ icon
- Archived - in the ‘View’ adjustment menu (eye icon) there is a checkbox that controls visibility of the archived boxes

If a column view is modified and a field in the filter is no longer available, that field should be removed from the filter while the existing fields will remain intact.

### You can filter by empty values in the task custom filters panel

In the task **Custom **filters panel, you can specifically search for tasks for which a given field is empty.
